What to call my belief? Your therioes about life/god?



I believe in death, destruction, chaos, filth and greed.
 

Not going to lie, that is legit one of the most interesting things I've read in a while. It seems logical in a sense that something similar could happen. I believe in god, but the point system is something that could be built on I feel?
 

Evolution, Aliens, Dinosaurs, etc.

I'm Catholic, btw. Just confirmed my faith last month.

Well, I used to be an Atheist.

About a year ago I converted to Christianity.


OT: I think you lean more to being agnostic and/or Deist.


Erm Christianity and Catholicism are 2 different things.

And dinosaurs are real, I have 1 in my basement...I feed him trolls.
 

Yea, you're a real big fundamentalist after telling me that.

Christianity and Catholicism are not at all different.

Big deal, we believe in Saints.
 

We disagree on the Lord's supper, Cath's have more sacrements, Catholics believe they can be saved by good works, and some more. Notice I said Catholics, doesn't mean you do, but that's some things.

And my dinosaur's a pteratyranodactyl. It's a pteradactyl and tyanasours combined. I need to find something with a laser that I can breed it with, any suggestions?
 

Okay, since you believe the entire the Bible word for word.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
-Matthew 16:18

Guess who the first Pope was? Saint Peter.

The Catholic Church is what started it all. Learn about some history during the Renaissance, and you'll see that different branches of Christianity arose from them.

Prove me wrong.
 

You're right that Christianity branched off, that's why we're different. Same God, but different beliefs concerning Him.

While you're right there, what you're saying of Peter is false. It never says pope or saint or anything in the Bible about Peter. Earlier on Jesus asks who the disciples think He is, Peter responds "You are the Christ, the Song of the living God". So Jesus is responding, "You are Peter (petros, which means little rock) and upon this rock (petra, means very great rock, or in this case Jesus) I will build my church.

So in a nutshell Jesus says who Peter is(in response to Peter saying who He is) and then says the church will be built on Himself, that is, Christ.
 

It's given. "YOU ARE THE ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH UPON". The name change itself from Simon to Peter indicates the Apostle being called to a special role of leadership; recall how Abram's name was changed to Abraham, or Jacob's to Israel, or Saul's to Paul, when each of them was called to assume a special role of leadership among God's people.

If anyone in this thread is truly Atheist, then you don't believe in good and evil, and a moral compass isn't real to you either.
 

Cheers :], and yeah it could. I really didn't lay much thought into it, that was just my thoughts about the circle of life.
 
As an athiest, all of that is just a joke to me. I respect other people's beliefs though.
 
I'm a Christian. Born and raised.
